Privacy compliance and enforcement on European healthgrids: An approach through ontology (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The sharing of medical data between different healthcare organizations in Europe must comply with the legislation of the Member State where the data were originally collected. These legal requirements may differ from one state to another. Privacy req... Read More about Privacy compliance and enforcement on European healthgrids: An approach through ontology.

Care pathway records and ontologies for medical research and healthcare (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This is one of a series of papers arising in part out of the SHARE (Supporting and structuring Healthgrid Activities and Research in Europe) project; in previous work, we have examined the use of integrated care pathways (ICPs), a fine-grained form o...

Stochastic automated search methods in cellular automata: The discovery of tens of thousands of glider guns (2010)
Journal Article

This paper deals with the spontaneous emergence of glider guns in cellular automata. An evolutionary search for glider guns with different parameters is described and other search techniques are also presented to provide a benchmark. We demonstrate t...

On open science and public engagement with engineering (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Open Science is an emerging approach to the conduct of science, technology and engineering projects, in which information about the whole of an ongoing investigation is made available on and through the Internet. Adopting an Open Science approach mea... Read More about On open science and public engagement with engineering.

Excavating grey literature: A case study on the rich indexing of archaeological documents via natural language-processing techniques and knowledge-based resources (2010)
Journal Article

Purpose: This paper sets out to discuss the use of information extraction (IE), a natural language-processing (NLP) technique to assist "rich" semantic indexing of diverse archaeological text resources. The focus of the research is to direct a semant...

Deep learning via student engagement with semi-automated lecture transcripts (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We describe the process and interim results of our HEA-ICS Development Fund project. The project is funded until the end of July 2010, so we will present to the HEA-ICS Conference at Durham final evaluations of the project, drawing on student feedbac...

Physarum machines: Computers from slime mould (2010)
Book

A Physarum machine is a programmable amorphous biological computer experimentally implemented in the vegetative state of true slime mould Physarum polycephalum. It comprises an amorphous yellowish mass with networks of protoplasmic veins, programmed... Read More about Physarum machines: Computers from slime mould.

Impact of object extraction methods on classification performance in surface inspection systems (2010)
Journal Article

In surface inspection applications, the main goal is to detect all areas which might contain defects or unacceptable imperfections, and to classify either every single 'suspicious' region or the investigated part as a whole. After an image is acquire... Read More about Impact of object extraction methods on classification performance in surface inspection systems.

Assessment of the influence of adaptive components in trainable surface inspection systems (2010)
Journal Article

In this paper, we present a framework for the classification of images in surface inspection tasks and address several key aspects of the processing chain from the original image to the final classification result. A major contribution of this paper... Read More about Assessment of the influence of adaptive components in trainable surface inspection systems.

ContextML: A light-weight context representation and context management schema (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Context representation is a fundamental process in developing context aware systems for the pervasive world. We present a light weight XML based context representation schema called ContextML in which context information is categorized into scopes an...

Coordinating metaheuristic agents with swarm intelligence (2010)
Journal Article

Coordination of multi agent systems remains as a problem since there is no prominent method suggests any universal solution. Metaheuristic agents are specific implementations of multi-agent systems, which imposes working together to solve optimisatio...

Interactive, evolutionary search in upstream Object-oriented class design (2010)
Journal Article

Although much evidence exists to suggest that early life cycle software engineering design is a difficult task for software engineers to perform, current computational tool support for software engineers is limited. To address this limitation, intera... Read More about Interactive, evolutionary search in upstream Object-oriented class design.

A federated broker architecture for large scale context dissemination (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Dissemination of context data from context producing entities to context consuming entities is a fundamental functional task of context aware systems. Broker based approaches have been successfully demonstrated in a number of prototype context-aware... Read More about A federated broker architecture for large scale context dissemination.
